Why I chose
to make this costume:
During my planning
for the Fashion Show I thought of having a matching Angel with
the Pink Bubblegum Angel come on the Runway.
I had some unused baby blue pleather and left-over white fur and
decided to give it a go.
How I made this costume:
I made the
two-colored dress with an open back and lacing. After fitting
it to the model, Mandy, I sewed a fat fur trim on the bottom hem
and made matching fur cuffs and boot covers. The shoulder flaps
clasp at the base of the neck in the back.
To really compliment the Pink Angel, I also had to make wings.
Eventhough the design was different this time, this pair also
have fiberoptic layers between the feathers, powered by the same
color-changing source. To complete the costume, I installed blinking
blue live-wire in the wrist cuffs, and made some cute blue/white
ears for the wig.
My thoughts on this costume:
Mandy totally looked the part in the
costume, and received many compliments on the outfit. Nessa, who
looked so fantastic in it, was literally mobbed at AX for photos.
